I've tried running them with root user as well.
The problem might come from using a beta version of web3 it's not stable at the moment and currently is under heavy development you have one of two options,
either use a stable version 0.19 I think or something like that.
Another thing I would suggest trying is npm --save in order to save the package locally in the project

I am currently in a Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS OS.
Problem
I can't seem to install and packages using npm. It seems to be a DNS query issue. Has anyone found a way to fix this?

Maybe this is somehow related to this issue described in the balena forum:
the mentioned exception comes probably from the dns.js in node and may be a result from a "mysterious" variable intialization:
family = options.family >>> 0;
It looks like that an undefined value for family gets evaluated to "4294967295" instead of "0" while using QEMU.
If you have access to the code for the underlying call (at net.js:1004:5), maybe you can do a similiar workaround and add a fixed value for this family-parameter to the "lookup" function call.

I followed the instructions in step 1 and step 2. my .npmrc is updated with the response I received from entering
curl -umehul#digitalassetsdk:<API_KEY> https://api.bintray.com/npm/digitalassetsdk/npm/auth/scope/da
and I entered the command
npm config set #da:registry https://api.bintray.com/npm/digitalassetsdk/npm
What is causing the error?
From the comments it appears you missed a step of the setup, namely as the instructions tell you to paste the response of curl to ~/.npmrc.
The response should be pasted in the ~/.npmrc (in Windows %USERPROFILE%/.npmrc) file.
As an alternative, on Linux and MacOS you can just pipe the output of curl to ~/.npmrc as follows:
curl -u<USERNAME>:<API_KEY> https://api.bintray.com/npm/digitalassetsdk/npm/auth/scope/da >> ~/.npmrc
Using the >> operator will preserve the current content of ~/.npmrc and append the output of curl to the file (or create it if it's not there yet). If you want to overwrite the current ~/.npmrc file, just use the > operator instead.
The Bintary 'Set Me Up' Instructions (referenced in step 1.3 of https://docs.daml.com/app-dev/bindings-js/getting-started.html) say to run a curl command and the to run
npm config set #<SCOPE>:registry https://api.bintray.com/npm/digitalassetsdk/npm
When I skip the npm config step I have no problems.

I am getting a 404 error when trying to link a local module with npm following the docs
Inside the local module directory seems like it creates a global link correctly:
$ npm link
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/my-module-name -> /Users/XXX/my-module-directory/my-module-name
But when just after that I try to link this from other project directory i get an 404 error:
$ npm link my-module-name
npm ERR! code E404
npm ERR! 404 Not Found: my-module-name#latest
I've tried to unlink the module and link again or change versions but it doesn't work.

You're using an NVM-installed version of Node.js to run npm link my-module-name, but you didn't run npm link (in your module's directory) using that same version.
The initial link is created in /usr/local/lib/node_modules, but when you use NVM, each Node.js version gets their own "lib" directory, in your example /Users/XXX/.nvm/versions/node/v8.2.1/lib/node_modules, which is a different directory.
